Thankful 2009

Every time I see a turkey or hear the word from this year forward I will forever be reminded of Aidan's "five little turkey song" . He'll sing for anyone who will listen.


Aidan ended up with a bigger half. Ethan got mad and started jabbing Aidan with the short end. I love little boys....

When grandpa and grandma let the boys pick out their own Christmas gift last year, Aidan jumped for joy to have a Leapster.

Oversize shoes are so much fun for Ethan!

These boots are made for walkin'.

While Ethan helped Uncle Health on his property Aidan who was recovering from the flu stayed home and learned to play Uno with Grandma.

Uncle Heath and Aidan.
Grilling together.

The boys love their grandpa because he's fun and fair.
Both boys received equal turns riding around the yard.

Brotherly love.

Aidan was a big helper this year by bringing supper to the table.

Ethan got to set the table how ever he wished.

While we waited for supper to start,
Aidan and I created a veggie turkey that was
too cute to eat.

Ethan kept the conversation going while we all ate. He was always the first to start and the last to finish. He ate mostly with his hands and talked with his mouth full but that's a two year old for yah.

From the kitchen window I thought this bush was a hedge. Come to find out the hedge was actually a row of canna, one of my favorite flowers. Some of the bulbs date back to Kyle's grandma Becker's yard. SPECIAL!

I have no idea what these are, (...some master gardener) but they sure are pretty.

I heart elephant ear.
But I heart Kyle more. This year I am most grateful for Kyle.
The past few years I've been most grateful for Aidan and Ethan. But let's just get right down to the source. Their father is such a gift to our lives.
